Though good visibility is offered, the area of customization can be difficult to handle
The features of the product that I found to be the most instrumental in providing customer experience stem from the unified inventory and catalog management. The feature of the product that streamlined our company's order management and fulfillment processes is the order orchestration engine. I would rate the tool's ability to handle peak traffic and scale during any high-demand periods an eight to eight and a half out of ten since I have not had any major problems with the product. The measurable benefit my company has experienced from the use of the product stems from the fact that our organization's e-commerce orders have increased by five times compared to what it was earlier, especially if I consider the inclusion of campaigns. I would ask those who plan to use the solution to map out all their internal workflows and processes and then evaluate what they need, after which they need to look at the solutions with which they can do away, or instead of Orckestra, they could probably go ahead with Shopify. I would say that make sure that you really understand all your architecture and your workflows before settling on a solution. I rate the overall tool a seven out of ten.

Unified commerce platform has streamlined direct sales and integrated promotions and billing
One of the most valuable features in Salesforce Commerce Cloud is that it helps me avoid storing credit card information, with a vault function taken care of. Salesforce provides this vault feature, enabling me to bill my D2C customers directly and also feeding data into my Marketing Cloud and Services Cloud. For visibility features in Salesforce Commerce Cloud, I might need to schedule a separate meeting as I can only share certain levels of information. Experience-wise, it is very good; the platform helps identify promotional opportunities and integrates well with Salesforce's Trade Promotion Management. The main benefits Salesforce Commerce Cloud provides are significant process improvements. If we did not have it, I would need to establish a separate D2C portal such as Magento Commerce and integrate with Salesforce for some data. Having Salesforce Commerce Cloud is essential as it integrates very quickly and is part of the entire ecosystem.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Inventory, visibility, catalog management, and order orchestration are the most valuable features of the solution."
"If you want a straightforward e-Commerce site, this is a good product with less setup formalities and easy to use, but if you want in-depth customization this might not be a good choice for you."
"Salesforce Commerce Cloud is the best option for enterprise customers."
"The pipeline and lead management features are the most valuable."
"We use this solution for general CRM use cases including capturing the regular customer lifecycle, opportunities, accounts and managing leads."
"Customer Service: Actually, their ticket system and help area is very good."
"The ease of customization is valuable and allows us to customize business process engines and set up data models efficiently."
"Demandware helped the company set up a user friendly e-commerce website in a short time frame and offers stable system performance."
"I have found the list creation and dashboard customization features valuable."
 

Cons

"The issue with Orckestra stems from the fact that if I want some customization, then I need to work with Orckestra's team, which is a slow process."
"The solution should have more and faster reporting, as well as better performance."
"Demandware is strong across the board."
"Salesforce's technical support is not as good as Elastic Path."
"The connection with Marketing Cloud should be improved."
"Four years ago, we linked Salesforce Commerce Cloud with Outlook, and this was a nightmare because a contact in 20 opportunities is a common scenario."
"There is always room for improvement with any solution."
"In terms of application performance, it could be a bit quicker."
"If you have followed the best practices you will not have a problem, however you are allowed to change the caching for different pages and that may cause a lot of problems with the performance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is likely on the pricier side, though it is considered a budget platform compared to Salesforce."
"I give the price of the solution a three out of ten."
"The licensing of Salesforce Commerce Cloud is something that will depend on the customer's usability. For us as a company, we are in a position where we will be paying the premium for licensing. If we go to the customer who is seeking a B2C solution quickly, we will definitely look at the pricing when it comes to the user base and receive good discounts. Discount is something that depends on the volume and that is where we need to work on. It is a little sensitive market when it comes to licensing procurement. There are some good competitors."
"Initially when we installed Salesforce, we thought that it was a bit pricey, but I think for the value that we're getting, it’s suitable."
"The pricing is fairly reasonable."
"The product is expensive."
"There are no significant upfront license costs."
"I think price-wise, it's a little bit expensive. It can be made cheaper for smaller businesses. I understand that for larger businesses, it can be a payable amount. But for medium to smaller, it is kind of costly, and it might be difficult for them to pay."
"Salesforce is not a cheap solution."
